Genealogy / Claiming WW2 medals for Polish father [38]

Merged: Obtaining unclaimed Medals my grandfather was Entitled to!

Hello

I received a letter from the Polish M.O.D in London. My grandfather hadn't claimed a Medal he was entitled to,it was the BRITISH WAR MEDAL 1939-45....It has now been received which is fantastic,However,at the bottom of the letter it states

"turning now to the Polish awards,he was entitled to the POLISH MEDAL WOJSKA( army medal) and the CROSS FOR VALOUR( krzyz walecznych ). The issue of the Polish medals are outside the province of the British authorities, However you can buy one from the addresses below;"

Does anyone know where or how i could get the original ones! I don't want replacement ones....and it is a shame they wasn't issued to him:(

Kind Regards,
Tessa
